View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

The BTTS - No pick is supported by both teams’ very low-scoring profile: only 39% of league matches have seen goals from both sides, with an average of 2.0 goals per game. Sporting CP II have scored just 0.4 goals per match across their last 5 games, with BTTS occurring in 0% of those appearances. The visitors have also conceded only 0.4 goals per game during this period, while Penafiel have averaged 0.8 goals, limiting their chances of breaking through the opposition’s defense. Season-long data also points to clean sheets for both teams in 100% of their matches so far, with BTTS at 0%, although the sample size is clearly small. Although Penafiel’s latest xG stands at 1.56 and Sporting CP II’s at 1.42, the visitors’ poor actual finishing and solid defense provide stronger support for the expectation that at least one team will fail to score.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

The strongest signal points to Under 3.5 goals, as the league-wide average is only 2.0 goals and just 33% of matches have exceeded the 2.5-goal threshold. In their last five matches, Penafiel scored 4 goals and conceded 7, while Sporting CP II scored just 2 and conceded only 2. The away side does have strong season-long chance-creation metrics, with an average xG of 2.18 and 21 shots per match, but its recent scoring average has dropped to 0.4. Both teams recorded matches below 3.5 goals in 100% of the available season data, while the projected total of 2.12 goals provides a clear safety margin for the Under 3.5 line.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The strongest signal is a draw at half-time: in their last five matches, Penafiel were level after 45 minutes in 60% of games, while Sporting CP II recorded a draw in 80%; the visitors failed to score a single goal before the break during this period. After half-time, however, the advantage shifts to Sporting CP II, who averaged 1.6 points in second halves across their last five appearances, compared with Penafiel’s 0.6, and conceded just 0.2 goals per game in those periods, versus 1.2 for the hosts. The visitors also create significantly more chances, averaging 2.18 xG and 21 shots, while Penafiel average 1.37 xG and 10 shots. The hosts’ weaker current form, with just 0.8 goals scored and 1.4 conceded per match in their last five games, further supports the scenario of an even start followed by an away win after the break.
